Sports and leisure net structure

ABSTRACT

A net structure for use of both sports and leisure is mainly made up of a net body having a plurality of net yarns integrally woven into a large meshwork of coarse and three-dimensional cords wherein within each net hole of the large meshwork is interwoven a small net layer to form a net-within-net fabric structure. The large meshwork is increased in frictional resistance for barring objects caught at the net body therein; the small net layer can gather the outstretched large meshwork thereof, preventing the large meshwork from getting loose easily and permitting the net body thereof to be flexibly expanded within a certain range. The small net layer also forms a protective layer to stop objects like balls from breaking through thereof. Moreover, the net body can be integrally woven by net yarns of two or more than two different colors with the large meshwork in contrast or matching with the small net layer in different colors to verify and increase the beauty of the net body in display.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention is related to a sports and leisure netstructure, especially a net structure for use of sports and leisure,comprising a net body having a plurality of net yarns integrally woveninto a large meshwork, within each net hole of which is interwoven asmall net layer therein to form a net-within-net fabric structure. Thesmall net layer can gather and draw back the outstretched large meshworkwhen the net body is hit by objects from outside, preventing the netbody from getting loose easily to provide an improved net structure ofincreased strength and flexibility.

[0002] Please refer to FIG. 1. A conventional net structure is mainlymade up of a net body 10 having a plurality of net yarns woven into alarge and coarse meshwork to increase the frictional resistance thereof.Sometimes, the net holes of said net body 10 are increased in densityfor further strengthening thereof. However, there are some drawbacks tosuch conventional net structure. Most of all, when the net body 10 isconstantly hit or pulled by objects from outside, the net body 10 mighteasily get loose or deformed thereby, greatly reducing the strength ofthe net body 10 thereof in barring objects like balls.

[0003] Please refer to FIG. 2. Another conventional net structurecomprises a net body 20 having a plurality of equidistant thick plasticyarns 21 formed into a twilled net fabric and a plurality of thinplastic yarns 22 interlacing with the thick plastic yarns 21 viafastening joints 23. There are some disadvantages to such conventionalnet structure. First, the net body 20 can easily get loose when thefastening joints 23 is constantly hit by objects from outside, failingto bar objects thereof. Second, the thick plastic yarns are first moldedinto a twilled net fabric before the thin plastic yarns are interlacedtherewith, which not only complicates the process, but also increasesthe cost of production. Third, the fastening joints 23 can easily breakoff due to impact from outsides, which makes the net body 20uneconomically short in lifetime.

SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0004] It is, therefore, the primary purpose of the present invention toprovide an improved net structure for use of both sports and leisure,comprising a net body having a plurality of net yarns integrally woveninto a large meshwork of coarse and three-dimensional cords, within eachnet hole of which is interwoven a small net layer therein to form anet-within-net fabric structure. The small net layer can draw back theoutstretched large meshwork when the net body is hit by objects fromoutside, permitting the net body to be flexibly expanded within acertain range and preventing it from getting loose easily to provide anet structure of increased strength and flexibility.

[0005] It is, therefore, the secondary purpose of the present inventionto provide an improved net structure for use of sports and leisurewherein the net body can also be integrally woven by net yarns of two ormore than two different colors to produce a large meshwork in contrastor matching with a small net layer of different color interwoven at eachnet hole of the large meshwork thereof to verify and increase the beautyof the net body in display.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0012] Please refer to FIGS. 3, 4. The present invention is related toan improved net structure for use of both sports and leisure, comprisinga net body 30 having a plurality of net yarns 31 integrally woven into alarge meshwork 32-of coarse and three-dimensional cords. Within each nethole of said large meshwork 32 is disposed a small net layer 33interwoven with the net yarns 31 of said large meshwork 32 thereof toform a net-within-net fabric structure as shown in FIG. 4. Said smallnet layer 33 thereof can gather and draw back the outstretched largemeshwork 32, avoiding the overspread and deformation of said net body 30thereof. Besides, said large meshwork 32 of coarse and three-dimensionalcords are increased in frictional resistance for barring objects caughttherein, and the small net layer 33 also forms a protective layer tostop objects like balls from breaking through said net body 30 thereof.

[0013] In practical use, the small net layer 33 disposed at said largemeshwork 32 therein can draw back the outstretched large meshwork 32thereof when said net body 30 is hit by objects from outside, preventingsaid large meshwork 32 from getting loose easily and permitting said netbody 30 to be flexibly expanded within a certain range thereof toprovide an improved net structure of increased strength and flexibility.In other case, said net body 30 can also be integrally woven by netyarns 31 of two or more than two different colors to produce a largemeshwork 32 of coarse and three-dimensional cords in contrast ormatching with a small net layer 33 of different color interwoven at eachnet hole of said large meshwork 32 therein to verify and increase thebeauty of said net body 30 in display.

[0014] Please refer to FIG. 5. Said large meshwork 32 along with saidsmall net layer 33 of said net body 30 can be adjusted for use ofdifferent sports such as soccer, hockey, or golf, etc. The net holes ofsaid large meshwork 32 and small net layer 33 can be woven intodifferent sizes to form a ball net 40 for different sports. When saidnet body 30 is hit and pulled backwards by a ball from outside, thefrictional resistance produced by said large meshwork 32 of coarse andthree-dimensional cords can effectively bar the ball caught therein.Meanwhile, said small net layer 33 will gather and draw back theoutstretched large meshwork 32, preventing said net body 30 from gettingloose or deformed thereof. Besides, said small net layer 33 can alsoform a protective layer to stop said ball caught therein from breakingthrough said net body 30 thereof. Thus, said ball net 40 can effectivelyavoid the defects of looseness and breaking-off thereof.

[0015] Please refer to FIG. 6. A large rectangular piece of said netbody 30 thereof can also be applied for use as a hammock 50 in leisuretime. Said hammock 50 is provided with a pair of opposite hangingsections 51 disposed at both sides thereof for location thereof viafixing means. In practical use, said net body 30 having said largemeshwork 32 with said small net layer 33 interwoven therein provides arelatively larger contact area with human body lying thereon. Said largemeshwork 32 of coarse and three-dimensional cords provides betterfrictional resistance to hold a user on said hammock 50 thereof,avoiding the danger of falling off. Meanwhile, said small net layer 33offers a further protective layer, increasing the contact area and thesafety of users such as children lying thereon.
